阴囊肿瘤可分为睾丸内和睾丸外起源的肿瘤。睾丸内肿瘤比睾丸外肿瘤更常见。超声检查是阴囊病理实体成像的首选方法。然而，睾丸外肿瘤的检测和鉴别诊断比睾丸内肿瘤更复杂。也不一定能区分睾丸旁组织来源的睾丸外肿块和睾丸内肿块。如果病变局限于附睾，很容易鉴别。(1)然而，如果病变起源于睾丸被膜，分化可能是麻烦的。我们报告一例腺瘤样肿瘤在壁层的图尼卡迷走神经（LPTV）睾丸。这份报告是独特的，它描述了一个操作，帮助我们区分肿块是睾丸外的位置。
Scrotal neoplasms can be divided into those that are intratesticular and extratesticular in origin. Intratesticular neoplasms are more prevalent than extratesticular neoplasms. Ultrasonography is the method of choice for imaging scrotal pathologic entities. However, detection and differentiation of an extratesticular neoplasm are more sophisticated than for intratesticular neoplasms. It is also not always possible to differentiate an extratesticular mass originating from the paratesticular tissues from an intratesticular mass. If the lesion is confined to the epididymis, the differentiation can easily be made.(1) However, if the lesion is originating from the tunics of the testis, the differentiation can be troublesome.We report a case of an adenomatoid tumor in the lamina parietalis of the tunica vaginalis (LPTV) testis. This report is unique that it describes a maneuver that helped us differentiate the mass as being extratesticular in location.
